We have built About Rentals so that you can create multiple units inside of one community. This make it so that a house can be a community of sorts because you might have a 6 bedroom house that you rent in 3 ways – as a 6 bedroom, as a 2 bedroom, as a 4 bedroom. This way you can list it as a 6 bedroom, 4 bedroom or 2 bedroom. Once the 2 bedroom rents, now the 6 bedroom would need to be marked as unavailable (as only the 4 bedroom side is now available. On the other side of the coin if you rent it as a 6 bedroom then the 4 bedroom and the 2 bedroom would need to be taken offline. This gives you lots of flexibility to rent a house in multiple ways.
Communities also apply to buildings or clusters of buildings. You might have a building that has 40 units in it, you would create a community then build individual apartments that go in that community with different quantities depending on how many of each unit you have available to rent. So much flexibility!!
